Preparation is done, now it’s time to go;
The four years spent here, seemed so slow.
But now it’s here, the challenge we’ll try;
One last tear, one last cry!

It’s hard to move on, and leave everything behind;
I wish life were a tape, so I could rewind.
Change the past, and live in the new;
Anything you want, it’s up to you!

This is the start, a new beginning is near;
Try to be strong, and show no fear.
Keep on the right path, give it your best;
In the end you’ll ace your final test!

Try to be bold, and try to be brave;
Many years of school we gave.
Now it’s your choice, it’s all up to you;
Will you attend college, and carry through?

Invent something great, find something new;
Figure out if, a mystery is true.
Travel the world, discover the Earth;
Carry the newborns, out at birth!

Play a sport, become an all-star;
Drive around, in a brand new car.
Get a job that pays really great;
Take out your spouse, on a date!

Find your career, however you like;
Join a union, and avoid a strike.
Save someone’s life, become a king;
Impress the world, on how you sing!

Join the military, and do something good;
Live in a place, with a great neighborhood.
Now it’s time to graduate;
To see you again, I cannot wait!

Some of us will change, some will move away;
Some we’ll meet each other, on a distant day.
Until that day comes, keep asking for more;
No one can beat the class, of 2004!
